Virginia Giuffre wrote something that feels especially timely now:
“Do you know why this world is as bad as it is? It is because people think only about their own business, and won’t trouble themselves to stand up for the oppressed, nor bring the wrong-doers to light. My doctrine is this, that if we see cruelty or wrong that we have the power to stop, and do nothing, we make ourselves sharers in the guilt.”
Still wearing this bracelet that says JUSTICE.
If you’ve been here awhile, you know I began this work because survivors deserved to be heard. It’s been tied around my wrist for months now as we continue to push for transparency and accountability.
I’m tired, but I’m still going.
They watched Iraq burn on television and called it Shock and Awe.
Shock and Awe.
They named the massacre of a civilian population after the experience of watching it from a safe distance.
Not "the bombing campaign."
Not even the sanitized military euphemism.
Shock. And. Awe.
The aesthetic experience of the people watching.
Not the physical experience of the people dying.
This is what empire does to the psychology of its citizens.
It turns atrocity into spectacle.
It turns the suffering of distant people into a viewing experience with a brand name.
And the people watching from their living rooms were not monsters.
That's the point.
They were ordinary people whose entire psychological architecture had trained them to receive distant violence as entertainment, as proof of power, as reassurance.
The monsters are the architecture.
Mysterious wealth.
2008 epstein gets a out of jail free card.
Epstein strong connections to Israel. Sealed documents, redacted names. cameras stop working, cell mate transfered, falsified prison records.
Maxwell gets moved to a resort prison.
Trump/government is compromised
Israel executed baby Sam today with a bullet to the face in the occupied West Bank.
They killed his mother too.
Sam was only 7 months old.
They murdered a mother. And her infant.
So let me get this straight, Israel’s counterintelligence risk was just elevated to critical, while simultaneously our dumba** congressmen refused to take out section 224. THAT SHOULD MEAN THEY ARE COMPROMISED. But it’s okay, Pulte is head of ODNI now. FML.
A person who is being protected by redactions wrote to Jeffrey Epstein:
“You don’t have to worry personally because I’m sending you somewhere beyond extradition.”
Release the Epstein files
These are the same men who oversaw the destruction of Gaza, then discussed redevelopment opportunities while thousands of children were still being killed.
Now they are moving toward much deeper concentrations of military, technological, and political power. They want to integrate American and Israeli forces. 🧵
The most effective propaganda does not tell you what to think.
It tells you what is worth thinking about.
Americans are not told to support every U.S. military action.
They're encouraged to debate it.
To have opinions.
To argue about troop levels and exit strategies and mission creep.
What they are not asked to think about is the premise.
The premise: that the United States has the right to project military power into any country on earth, to overthrow governments it dislikes, to impose economic conditions through financial institutions it controls, to maintain hundreds of military bases on foreign soil, to reserve the right of first nuclear strike, to conduct drone assassination programs in countries it is not at war with.
These are not debated on cable news.
These are not campaign issues.
These are not in the frame.
They are the frame.
And as long as the frame holds, the debate inside it, hawks versus doves, surge versus withdrawal, multilateral versus unilateral, is a debate about methods.
Not about whether the entire structure of global military dominance should exist.
The system allows you to argue about everything inside the frame.
It simply never asks you to look at the frame.
Vietnam looked at the frame.
Vietnam broke the frame.
That is why they have never fully forgiven us.
Section 224, which has been publicly endorsed by Netanyahu, would move Israel from being a major recipient of U.S. support to becoming deeply embedded within America’s defense technology and industrial base.
The concern is not aid. The concern is integration. Americans are rightfully concerned.
Serious case in Israel 🚨

Zionists have literally been writing US public school textbooks since Ghislaine Maxwell's dad Robert Maxwell took over Macmillan/McGraw-Hill in the 1980s.
Josh knows this, but for some reason he's blaming Muslims.
The U.S. Congress has members who cannot agree on the price of insulin.
Who cannot agree on whether children should have school lunches.
Who cannot agree on infrastructure, or wages, or healthcare, or the age at which someone can buy a weapon designed to kill large numbers of people quickly.
But they agree on Israel.
Unanimously. Reflexively. Across party lines.
With a speed and unanimity that the American people have never received on any issue that affects their daily lives.
Ask yourself what produces that specific unanimity in a legislature that agrees on almost nothing else.
The answer is not shared values.
The answer is shared foundations.
The answer is that every one of those politicians governs a country built on the same premis.
And the same premise requires the same defense.
And the defense of that premise is the one thing that transcends every other political division.
The American ruling class is not unanimous on Israel because of Israel.
It is unanimous because of America.
Update on the crimes against humanity documented in the Epstein files:
It’s going to take the general public a while to catch up. We’re still in the gap between revelation and realization.
Remember: the people at the top have had years to prepare for this, and are in charge of when and how you find out (DOJ is withholding millions of files)
Everyone else is just beginning to understand the scale of what they’re looking at.
Why do you think so many of the wealthy and powerful spend so much time planning for contingencies the rest of the public never gets to consider?
Así es la esclavitud en las minas en el este del Congo, de donde sale más del 70% del cobalto del mundo, miles de esclavos diariamente extraen el mineral por apenas 2$ al dia para llenar los bolsillos a las multinacionales capitalistas.
El capitalismo que no te enseñan, así es como se sostiene el nivel de vida y de consumo en Occidente, en estas minas al menos hay 40.000 niños esclavizados que pican piedra para que Apple saque 4 modelos de Iphone cada año.
This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.
More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.
And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.
Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.
The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.
Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.
We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.
